Create slots, grooves and rabbets in materials from 3,2mm to 18mm in depth by using the adjustable CMT 3-Wing slot cutter set. See chart below for details on spacing and correct cutter combinations. Ideal for biscuit joints and milling perfect tongue and groove joints. This set includes:
4 carbide tipped cutters 3,2mm, 4mm, 4,8mm, 6,4mm
1 arbor 12mm or 12,7mm
1 ball bearing (22mm) for 12,7mm cut
17 shims: (8x0,1mm - 4x0,5mm - 3x1mm and 2x4mm).
Safety tips:
never use the slot cutter set without shims between the cutters. The distance between the cutters can vary from 1mm to 1,7mm. A shim must also be positioned between the ball bearing and the cutters.
Shop tips: the bearings kit 791.711.00 makes 6,35mm and 9,5mm cutting depths.
Note: the carbide edges of the cutters must never touch; arrange the shims as illustrated below. Use only thicknesses provided in the set. Be sure all cutters are assembled in the correct rotational direction. Looking downwards on the arbor, the cutters will turn clockwise.
